Need help with tire size

New to the site and have found a lot of useful info here, but just have one question.

Is anyone running a 255/65/16 on a stock 08 Liberty?

I have read that I can go with 245/70/16's with no problems, but would like the slightly wider 255's. They are the same height as the stock 235/70/16's just about 3/4" wider.

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks

I ran 255/65/16 General Grabber AT2's with a lift and had some very slight minor rubbing on full lock. So my guess would be you will have a lot of rubbing with no lift.

Thanks for the reply. I figured that might be the case.

I actually just put the General Grabber AT12s on my stock 08 235/75/16 and there's no rubbing at all. I dig 'em

I just put Hankook DynaPro ATM RF10 P-Metric 245/75R16 109T's on my 2008 KK Sport 4X4 with stock suspension and there is no rub with the wheel hard right or left forward or reverse. Looks really cool. I will be adding a Daystar 2" lift to get more clearance in general, but the tires work with the stock suspension and they are on sale at Discount Tires for $113 right now. You gotta dig that.

What size lift were you running?

can you describe "minimal rubbing"?

where you running stock rims, and did you have any spacers?
